OK, I'll report it officially. Unless I'm mistaken, this seems like a
significant regression, in that full-screen mode is simply not working---the
root window becomes "lost" forever after one application of command-option-a.
Try starting X11 by typing xeyes in Terminal, with X11 set for full-screen
mode.
Then do command-option-a twice in succession. No more gray root window.
Things seemed much better with the X11.bin from Dec. 17; I just put it back in
place and checked.
